♪ hello and good morning, it is saturday the 16th of november, 2013. i'm anna kooiman. call it the great defection. 39 democrats splitting with the president in support of the republican's healthcare fix but the president vowing to block it. so where does he stand? we break it down straight ahead. >> another day, another run-in with the media for actor alec baldwin. his target this time a fox news reporter that vial appalling and yet compelling exchange and his excuse for the confrontation straight ahead. >> guys, it looks like we can't win. new research revealing that your wife and girlfriend may stay mad at you even if the
3:01 am
fight you two had was in her dreams. >> it wasn't even real. >> you wake up and go what's wrong, hope, you cheated on me in my dream. "fox & friends" begins right now. >> even if the web site isn't working as smoothly as it should being for everybody yet. >> i [inaudible] i swear to god! >> i love that story about the wife waking up angry. you know he what you did. you know. >> and it happens all the time. and the research is in and it's conclusive now and can you see it in her face too. you have got the dower look and you know you did something. >> you have one option, apologize. >> it was in our dreams. >> momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. >> more on that a little later in the show but let's talk about obamacare this morning. hop on a phone call with me. >> hop on a phone call with me. that's what president obama has sent out for organizing for action, of the political
3:02 am
action committee that's supportive of the president's plans and his legislation. he wants to basically apologize on monday in a conference call saying hop on the phone with me. that was the email sent out basically going to apologize for the fumbled rollout of obamacare. >> will it be enough to rally the troops behind him? and he needs that because yesterday he lost 39 democrats in the house of representatives who voted for a bill sponsored by congressman fred upton of michigan that would allow americans the freedom the promised them falsely which is to keep the healthcare plans they are satisfied with. 39 democrats broke with the president to support that by the way they had no choice. the numbers on this are compelling. >> part of that is because over 5 million americans and their families could be more than that severed ties with their doctors. congress men and women are thinking wait a minute i am up for re-election and what
3:03 am
happens if my constituents are part of this group and it's not fair? they wanted to be able to go on record, i would imagine. we did hear some harsh words from both sides of the aisle mention that it was not split downtown aisle though. 239 democrats siding with republicans. let's listen to phil. he said it's a disgrace americans were lied to for part of this bill it? >> is disgraceful, greta, yes, we can take it all the way to the white house and then they finally say, well, executive privilege. and obama done that to us a number of times. we know they lied to us, lied to the american people. this bill that we passed today, of course, the president comes out the day before, tries to reelement that with some fiat or executive order, whatever. this is all about the american people and them having no insurance and a gap and then if something horrendous happens to him then that is a plane crash. >> at the heart of this is the question is whether government can do a large
3:04 am
program like this and provide health care for everyone. >> have you ever been to a dmv? how long is that line. >> my wife was on the phone with the irs 102 minutes waiting for an answer. these are the people running your healthcare program by the way. making the point this could be the first step towards the collapse of this new form of liberalism listen. >> unless it is somehow rescued and they make it work. this will be a story of an epic collapse of the central element of a new kind of liberalism. and this ideology will go down with the policy. that's why liberals are so afraid of this thing collapsing and they are in horror at the train wreck that they are now witnessing. >> boy. of course, i for one hope that that's true. we should be totally clear though that this bill which passed the house has to get to the democratically controlled is that senate. that may not happen. the president has promised
3:05 am
to veto it against these plans because they don't offer enough coverage. the truth suspect simpler than that. they need you and you and me and a lot of you out there to pay more than you need to pay in order to subsidize people who aren't paying anything right now. right? this is a wealth transfer. that's exactly the heart of this plan. >> go ahead. >> they need the healthy young americans to sign up otherwise, there is going to be this death spiral that we have been hearing about. >> the white house saying look, these plans are bad. they are saying these plans have what's known as rescission inside of them, which is, that, look, once you start piling up those medical bills, these are scam insurance policies that we are going to drop you from your insurance coverage because you got sick and you don't want these plans anyway. >> so supreme who can't build a web site are going to it assess what a good healthcare plan is? no the plans from the white house side because they are not expensive enough. the extra money you pay for coverage you don't need goes to people who don't have
3:06 am
coverage. this again is a form of welfare and he they are not being honest about it. >> you have got it feel from these insurance companies because they have had three years of plan for this and six weeks of this rollout of the web site and now a month to fix things and shouldering the blame for this from the president. >> believe shed ago tear for the insurance companies? it's a strange day, i will tell that you. >> let's talk about benghazi this morning because new revelation this morning in that terror attack. cia contractors testifying this week behind closed doors in front of that house hearing. and we're getting new reports out this morning from our own catherine herridge who has been doing some excellent reporting on this. these five cia contractors and members of the cia who are actually inside that room were asked to sign second nondisclosure agreements. second ndas. normally contractors will often sign nondisclosure agreements. after the attack why were they then asked to sign second ndas? >> why? the results were politically
3:07 am
damaging to the white house. look, the public has a right to know what happened here? why were this many cia officers in benghazi in the first place? we still don't have an answer to that question. in are asking, as far as i'm concerned and moreover what about the aftermath? why aren't people going after the perpetrators and we don't know the answer to that question. they are silencing the people who know the answers and silencing the others. it's an outrage. >> was there a lull in the fighting was there not a lull in the fighting? was there a thought from state side that potentially the fighting was even over. we heard from senator stephens last night warning about the intelligence committee. take a listen. >> it's wrong because if the state department denied send why. can i ask you very quickly is, it a fact that ambassador stevens spoke to your committee prior to his murder? >> ambassador stevens did spend some time with our committee prior to his
3:08 am
passing. >> that's significant. you don't normally have ambassadors to libya speaking to the house intel committee. and that lays the foundation so the viewers understand for yet another question we should be asking about why he wasn't better protected and why he was even at that consulate on the 9/11 anniversary. >> that was mike rogers there talking about ambassador chris stevens who, of course, passed away, one of the four innocent americans there. >> yes. >> pretty amazing. pretty amazing for this reason. this story has not gone away. and i have to say not to pat certain news organizations in the back. while the reps of the news organizations were ignoring this fox was keeping it alive. it's not a political story it's about four americans who died trying to help their country and a white house that has refused to answer exactly what happened. the truth will emerge ultimately. it always does. >> excellent reporting by our own reporter getting
3:09 am
ndas and talking to sources there talking behind closed doors. more on that before the show. >> let's get on to saturday morning news headlines. hot headed actor alex baldwin unloads on a fox reporter on the streets of new york city. >> the blonde? i do want to press charges against her. she assaulted my wife yesterday and almost hit her in the face. i at the present time press charges. >> okay. >> see that blonde woman i want to press charges against her. >> the blonde, wnyw reporter linda schmidt he falsely accused her of hitting his wife with her microphone thursday. as you can see the video there showing a different picture, baldwin later issued an apology for a week full of outburst at the media but it was too little too late. msnbc announced they are pulling his weekly talk show for at least two weeks. coming up in 8:00 hour linda schmidt joins us live to talk about exactly what went down with the actor. and while you were sleeping. u.s. and afghan negotiators

>> new center for public integrity new group sparing no offense public elections. during the 2012 campaign cycle. outside groups spend at least $209 million in a total of 38 states. what does this mean for the
3:17 am
bank rolling of elections going snow shower here to break it down is justin wilson from the center of union facts. justin, good morning, thanks for joining us? >> good morning, my pleasure. >> for the past several years, the line from the white house has been the supreme court decision on campaign finance allows big biopsy to buy elections. i think most people think that the majority of money spent by outside groups comes from big business. that's not the case though. >> you know. it's such an easy narrative to tell that story and we hear it time and time again. what people haven't been reporting is that labor unions, being faced with near extension are resurgent and they are almost spending themselves out of existence if only so they can actually have some gain in terms of their long-term existence. what we have seen is that they have invested more heavily in state and local elections because they ultimately have an outside influence. whether it's a city council race or state legislature. we have seen labor unions invest heavily heavily in
3:18 am
the last two years. >> this is all an outgrowth of the citizens united decision handed down by the supreme court that allowed this. i think the average person on the left. the average liberal is appalled by the supreme court decision and may not know that in fact it has helped the democratic party, correct? >> you know, exactly. unions are corporations in the same way that corporations are corporations. and as such, they are allowed to spend money out of their general treasury. what separates a labor union from a general corporation is they can get money from individual members' paychecks. every time a person gets a paycheck the union takes a small amount of that money and spends it on politics. the difficulty is we had this really frustrating disconnect between union members who are about 40% to 50% voting republican and labor unions who give almost 100% of political contributions to democrats. without any permission from the individuals, the unions take money from employees and spend it against their own political wills. the advantage or excuse meet one good thing this is that we have seen a bill introduced in congress just
3:19 am
on thursday called the employer rights act that would actually seek to remedy this and force unions to get opt in permission from their individual members to spend money on politicians and state and local elections and federal elections before they could actually take the money out of their paychecks. >> what's so surprising in some cases, and i have experienced this personally in my own life, you are required, in effect, to join a union in order to have a certain job. you have no choice. you have to join the union and then your money is taken without your concept and spent on political campaigns you might not agree with that's pretty surprising. >> that's exactly what's going on in a lot of the right-to-work states in this country. what we have seen in this research. programs they make it next to impossible to opt out, which is the current requirement for political programs. well, they will say oh, next february, there is a two week period and you need to send a notarized letter to the union's junior council, we won't tell you what his
3:20 am
address is, sign it and get it double standard and then you cannot participate in the union's political program. time and time again people find that impossible to not do. that's why the employers right exact an important piece of legislation. flip the tables on this. require you to get preapproval from union members. what we are going to see from a political perspective is that unions, if this bill is passed, would see themselves groping for a lot of the money that they are secretly injecting into our political system. >> interesting. next time somebody tells you citizens united empowered the coke brothers. you can say actually it was the unions who benefited from it thanks. >> thank you. >> new niewmg bombshell, $10,000 award for leads about the attack since the beginning of this year. why didn't we know this until now? you have heard this before. fighting a cold for a big glass of oj for vitamin c. does that really help? dr. segal here to separate cold facts from fiction.

3:46 am
call thomas was a copy boy. was in the newsroom as the story broke and joins us with how broadcast has changed thank you for being here. >> copy boy. >> things called teletypes then when the news was printed on rolls of paper and i ripped it off and gave it to the correspondents in the washington bureau and managed to save the initial stories that said flash, president kennedy dead. in this little book that i also got called four days which compiles the great reporting by merryman. they only had radio telephones in the car. smith was two cars behind the presidential motorcade and he had to telephone in this radio telephone the first reports the president had been shot. when he got to parkland hospital he had it to come man cam man deer old fashioned telephone had to dial 9 to get outside. had to find a pay phone after that near the operating room the emergency room the president was
3:47 am
taken. >> where were you when you heard the president was shot. >> i was on river road in bethesda maryland 10 minutes from the road in listening to favorite rock and roll station. news bulletin the president had been shot in dallas. the first reaction was to roll down windows on both side of me. the president has been shot. the president has been shot. i raced to the bureau which was chaotic and amazing four days with hardly anybody getting sleep. >> things have changed so much the way we gather news. the immediacy of twitter and everyone has a smart phone in their pocket. we think about gathering news that day. think how many picture today would exist almost immediately if that assassination all of the people who were were there with their cameras. as you were telling me earlier no photos at all we didn't see any photos. >> if you go to the youtube and look at the nbc coverage. had you three guys sitting in a desk in new york black and white television. chet hutly and frank mcgee and bill ryan. they were on the telephone and they were repeating what
3:48 am
they were hearing from reporters in dallas. it was only othe next day that we got live pictures when linden johnson the new president came back to washington and got off the plane, actually, it was later that same night with mrs. kennedy and her bloodstained clothes with robert kennedy holding her hand and the picture showing her getting into the ambulance at andrews air force base with her husband's body. >> what was it like in the newsroom that day when you finally arrived? had you rolled back up the windows and driven into the bureau that day. describe the scene there. chaos? >> it was chaotic. but it was the kind of chaos where had you professional people who were steeped in journalism. most of these people came out sandra van came out of the kennedy white house. news service background. professional journalists and knew what they were doing even though it was loud and people shouting and also periods of quiet as the moments sank in to all of us. this was not president roosevelt dying in office. this was not william
3:49 am
mckinley being assassinated this was for me at least for me as a 20-year-old first experience a national trauma it was sobering but it was also chaotic but everybody was doing their job. >> well, we have a special here on fox news channel that programming note for our viewers this morning. that 50 years of questions jfk assassination hosted by bill hemmer will reair tonight at 10:00 p.m. here on the fox news channel. call thomas, great to see you this morning great perspective coming up on the show. irs making big mistake. sending personal information to the wrong place. details on that straight ahead. a dermatologist bad reviews on yep are killing his business. bigger problem he said none of them came from his patients. does he have a legal case? john and heather debate it next. this was the hardest decision i've ever had to make.

i can't stand these review web sites. yelp is a decent place to go if you want to know where to get a good burrito.
3:54 am
when it comes to businesses, parkways are like armpits, everybody has one. and there is no accountability for whether they are an actual review, a fake review or a competitor just trying to damage your business. and there is no accountability or liability on the part of the isps or the web sites. >> but, heather, you say this doctor doesn't have a case. why is that? >> he doesn't because the communication act protects people like yelp because otherwise they wouldn't have a business. if you can't put out people's opinions then why would you even have these would he be web sites. these are opinions not facts. first amendment applies. unfortunately doctors, lawyers, businesses really don't have a recourse. >> if the first amendment applies what would this be? is it fraud? >> that's what i think. completely fraud. in this doctor's case he is saying look these aren't even real people posting real reviews. this was yelp trying to get me to buy into yelp by hurting my business that i think comes out of the communications decency act.
3:55 am
this doctor probably does have a case. the average person like me. if my ex-boyfriend or former client wants to damage my business by posting on their there that they think i'm the devil, they can do that we represent a lot of doctors and we talk about this all the time. only thing can you do is have your customers and patients and family to post positive reviews to outweigh the negative reviews. no different than word of mouth back in the day where you tell your neighbors the doctor you like. this is out on the internet like many other things. >> johnna, you actually had something similar that happened to you that you want to share. >> i had a former disgruntled client who had this online campaign to try to damage my business. he didn't go on and post this picture and didn't host post his real name. he went on as jonna sucks 1. john that sucks 2. and it's hard to pinpoint who it is when you have to prove it in a court of law. he got charged with harassment and stalking. >> because you found him? >> right. >> what if businesses aren't. >> people can post
3:56 am
anonymously. on yelp. yelp was sued similar class action suit and they precede veiled. case thrown out of court. difficult to prove that yelp was posting these things. people are anonymous and lo loued to be. >> you want to put your opinion some place put your name but put your address. put something when you are not telling the truth. >> thank you so much. as a consumer, i guess, take it with a grain of salt and figure it out for yourself. 56 minutes after the hour. the president is getting hammered on all sides for his obamacare mess. so what kind of damage has it done to democrats up for re-election? plus, the smell of marijuana so bad in colorado now that it's legal that this con transportation, so it can fix it meet the naval ranger coming up. and just give them the basics, you know. i got this.

good morning, happy saturday. 16th of november, 2013. i'm anna kooiman, the mainstream media at it again. this time the "new york times" compares the president's obamacare disaster to president bush's handling of katrina? can you you compare an natural disaster to intentional act? we report, you decide alec baldwin. this time he went after a fox reporter. watch. >> i asked you a question. do you want to apologize? get out of here. >> whoa. call them men with nets. what parked his latest outburst coming up. >> well, colorado legalized marijuana but now the stench of pot is so bad there is a new -- there is a new officer nosing around the street. meet the nasal ranger.
4:01 am
>> huh? >> that's about the appropriate response. "fox & friends" hour two starts right now. >> once again, i have made an ass of myself. >> oh, good morning. was that a nose telescope that he had there? would that really work? i can understand that for your ear canal. >> would you want smells more intense than they are. >> i have ole factory. you walk around new york city. >> i'm lying a beagle i couldn't handle it. >> good morning, anna how are you. >> so good. >> anna is looking at us weird bizarre man as we. >> in case you missed the "new york times" this week and if you did congratulations. the parp compared the obamacare rollout. flat out disaster of obamacare rollout to hurricane katrina. the idea they are morally equivalent. messed up obamacare and president bush caused kron. >> here is the quote. see if you can pars this at
4:02 am
home. this is from the times. barack obama won the presidency by exploiting a political environment that devoured george w. bush in a second term plagued by sinking credibility. failed legislative battles. revolts inside his own party. president obama is now threatened by a similar toxic mix. the disastrous rollout of his healthcare law not only threatens the rest of his agenda but also raises questions about the competence. in the same way that the bush administration's botched response to hurricane katrina undermined any semblance of republican efficiency. >> here is the difference, of course, the obama administration isn't responding to obamacare they created. >> when over 1800 people died at katrina. that wasn't the bush administration's fault. you can't compare the two. >> you mean they didn't cause the hurricane? >> they didn't cause the hurricane. >> i thought he whipped it up in his lab. >> condoleezza rice out on a barge managed to create hurricane katrina. >> yes.
4:03 am
intentional act can simply not be compared to a natural disaster. but it seems to me that this is one of the many headlines that we have began to see even from the left-wing media starting to distance themselves from the president some journalists feel like we were lied to as well you said we could keep our plan and now we can't. well, you know, the tide does seem to be starting to turn. and we are noticing it in hollywood as well. >> i think that's right. look, it's obviously ludicrous to compare obamacare to katrina. it's idiotic. if you are a "new york times" editorial writer that's the meanest thing you can say. that really is the ultimate lefty slur it's like katrina. it's like global warming. that's a cuff criticism. >> how many times has bush been the punching bag? >> punching bag over the mission accomplished aircraft land.
4:04 am
come back to aunt them in political ads. some saying that the president's argument that you can keep your plan may go down as one of the biggest mistakes of his presidency and could come back to haunt him in more than one way. fred upton says if you like your plan you can keep your plan will go down as one of the most influential and infamous phrases in presidential history. take a listen. >> across generations presidencies are often associated with one famous utterance. ask not what your country can do for you. the only thing we have to fear, tear down this wall. and our current president will be no different. if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it, period. for the last three years, the president repeated this promise in selling his signature law and he did so with the knowledge that it would not be met. >> yeah. he knew it wasn't true. meantime in the day after all of, this the president
4:05 am
president met with more than a dozen. completely confused. the president comes out and offers his unilateral plan to suspend enforcement to allow people who fought -- who had their health insurance cancelled. what does that mean practically? they have no idea what that means to the insurance company. >> three days to get it up and running. three years to, would on it in the first place. by the way the reason the databases don't work. all the technical problems of these data businesses. all these insurance companies don't want to work with each other they are at oz. they are at competition. had this web site trying to pull in 50 different databases and make them talk with one another. that took three years and it was a failure. now in just a few short weeks you are going it tell them we want to roll it out so people with keep their plan and do it overnight and get this up and run buying november 30th. >> got essentially a month to try to figure this out. when you squeeze the
4:06 am
toothpaste out of the toothpaste tube it's really hard to get back in there isn't it? kind of messy. i do have other news headlines new jersey mall. during the shooting last week. you are watching now shows people running away and the accused gunman richard shoup walking around very calmly. >> the body language was not of somebody who was in a tactical position looking to take out target or looking to defend themselves it was basically of somebody who had a different state of mind. police say shoup fired off 16 rounds. nobody was hit. shot himself before confrontation with officers. be in charge with enforcing obamacare. can they be trusted with your personal information. the irs exposes a man's social security number, wages and tax information when a fax was mistakenly sent to a california small
4:07 am
business. it was supposed to go to an accountant across town. the data was seemingly exposed without the taxpayer's knowledge. and experts say it left him wide open to identity theft. the irs says they are now investigating. a 90-foot wide sink hole that opened up in florida appears to have stabilized some and crews are rushing to fill it before it can grow again. demolition crews tore down one of the homes that had to be condemned after the sink hole swallowed part of the house a day ago. a second home nearby will likely have to be torn down later today. the sink hole is now estimated to be 56 feet deep. >> legalized marijuana dealing with the smell. here you go, guys. the nasal ranger. complaints are pouring in about the drug stink odor, turning to a high tech nose telescope. it's a devise determines a smell violates the city odor law. the responsible party can be
4:08 am
fined up to $2,000. >> i would like it see the guy walking down the street with that on his nose. let's get it over to rick reichmuth now. >> i like that it said the responsible party. >> responsible party. >> all right, guys, here is your temps as you are waking up this morning. not that bad for anyone. there is going to be some changes. storm starting out across parts of the west. show that you in a second. east coast, tailing end of a cold front here. it's going to linger across parts of florida for your day today. this morning we have had rain showers exiting the mid-atlantic eventually in throughout the northeast. quick brush of showers and it's gone. turn all our attention here out to the west. big storm moving out here. we are going to see some areas. maybe see over two feet of snow across some the higher elevations. good news for ski areas. a lot of places opening up today, this is part of the central plains. take a look what happens throughout the day today. we are going to see some storms firing. kind of the first part of the severe weather side of
4:09 am
this across areas of iowa and in towards illinois. and that storm moves on throughout the overnight hours. and then a bigger develops as this pulls on tomorrow. get ready, big threat for aparts of illinois and indiana especially seeing a tornado or two by the time we are done with your day tomorrow. >> tornado or two. >> well, star of stage and screen, alec baldwin is at it again. mount alec. >> mount alec? >> just a short time after he unloaded on a fox news reporter, he has done it again. going after yet another fox news reporter who simply wanted answers to some questions. take a listen. [clearing throat] >> you are a good guy. >> you are the one who almost hit my wife with a microphone in the face. >> i did not almost hit your wife. i honest dli did not.
4:10 am
>> do you want to apologize to her on camera? i asked you a question do you want to apologize? >> get the [bleep] out of here. >> did nothing wrong. >> i did nothing wrong. >> al electric. >> such a kind gentle soul. >> tolerant liberal in new york city. kind of sad. he has clearly gone off the deep end. like a homeless guy batting at the air. eating insects no one else wants to see. >> his wife defended that he doesn't have anger management? >> no,. >> if you are alec baldwin and there is a group of people with cameras outside your house screaming at them like a lunatic, it's probably not. >> if we can say anything at all nicely about him is this was after the stalker trial that was going on and so that was probably very trying on his emotions. >> but if there is one way to ensure that the paparazzi is going to live outside your house give them a report on camera is you
4:11 am
acting like a crazy person. >> he was upset with linda schmidt there was a boom mike that almost hit his wife in the face or something earlier. this is the incident that started all of this, watch. >> >> do you have any comments about the woman being found guilty today? anything to say? >> i have something to say, get away from me. >> it wasn't a boom mike it was simply her hand held microphone it came nowhere near her face. >> talk to the hand. talk to the hand. >> i don't like the paparazzi either. this guy has lost control compleatedly, i think after the show i'm going down to his house to camp out. this is interesting. >> not the first time he had some screaming baldwin outburst one 1995. baldwin charged with beating a photographer. how about the next one we have in 2007, clayton? >> yeah. he called his daughter rude, thoughtless little pig. remember that voice mail and in 2011 kicked off airplane for playing words with
4:12 am
friends because he wouldn't shut down electronic device. this twitter rant in 2013. and then he got in another fight with photographer in august of this year. but, meanwhile, you know, he has like a friday night show on msnbc. msnbc has suspended him not because of this latest row with reporters. he made a disparaging homophobe bic, made antigay slur yelling at another reporter earlier in the week and saying nasty things to him to which members of the liberal media became fired up at him and said we are sick and tired of defending this guy. andrew sullivan who is gay wrote this on his blog, this raging violent bigot cannot be defended any longer. if you look at the time line here, these incidents are coming more frequently. i think he is spinning out of control. i don't think this is going to end well. please, alec. take a vacation. >> let us know what you think. email us and hit us up on facebook or twitter. >> he has a forced vacation for two weeks. >> he would already seeing a split among democrats for obamacare. what would it mean for the
4:13 am
party down the roads when voters get to weigh in on what they think about obama' that care. that debate is coming up. >> something that's never been done before this now. the incredible 360 move straight ahead.

4:16 am
how concerned are you that this rollout may help democrats chances in next year's midterm elections and your ability to advance other priorities? >> there is no doubt that our failure to roll out the aca smoothly has put a burden on democrats whether
4:17 am
they are running or not. i feel deeply responsible for making it harder for them rather than easier for them. >> and it seems some democrats are already sick of the burden, in fact, 39 dems have already split with the white house and voted in favor of the republican obamacare fix. this is a sign of what's to come in the democratic party? fox news contributor and national review editor rich lowry is here and new york daily news contributor maxwell join us this morning. nice to see you guys. >> zerlina burden on democrats. what burden is he specifically talking about. >> you have a lot of bad obamacare news largely connect to the web site. a year from now nobody is going to be thinking about a web site when americans can can finally go to the doctor on january 1st for the first time having the security the bill that comes won't force them into bankruptcy. nobody is going to be talking about the web site and the glitches. >> so, rich, it's just the web site? there is no structural damage at all? no problems with getting young people to sign up at all? is that what zerlina is
4:18 am
saying? >> the law was sold on a trinity of lies. owe many with that said you can keep your insurance if you like it, not true. said everyone's rates are going to go down, not true. said you can keep your doctor if you like your doctor, not true. your plan changes. paying the price for those lies and democrats are too. you have vulnerable ones like kay hagan in north carolina whose numbers have collapsed in recent weeks repeated that law over and over again. they should have known it was untrue all along the law is based getting people out of their individual insurance and on to the exchange. >> look at these pictures, democrats up for re-election and who are scared right now. >> you know, there is no question that they are scared. but, look, i think that the bottom line here is that people are going to be secure now. they are going to be saying thank god my insurance company -- it's not in the law. the insurance companies have always been dropping people. there was something called rescission that's a word that we don't hear too often now but that's what was going on before obamacare. just because it's happening now that the law is in
4:19 am
effect doesn't mean it's because of obamacare. that's correlation not causation. i think democrats are a little bit scared. but they need to stick together here because this is how we got to this point. americans needed health insurance and democrats gave it to them. republicans blocked it it all away along. >> look it is causation. the exchanges don't work. >> that's not true. i have been on the exchanges. i'm currently uninsured and been on the exchanges. >> the exchanges don't work. >> not true. >> force enough people. >> not true. >> force people on to them that the insurance pool is stable. what is very likely to happen is you are only going to get older and sicker people on the exchanges. >> not true. >> then the premiums have to spike and then they don't work. >> we know young people aren't signing up for these things where are going to come from. >> until you are 25 you can stay on your parents' insurance. young people you are talking about, particularly women here are not going to be just like well maybe i don't want to go to the doctor, you don't roll the dice particularly when you are a woman the idea that young people won't go on to exchanges is very gendered. i think women they need preventative care and will
4:20 am
sign up for obamacare. >> you say young people won't go on that's gender inclug guys and young gals. >> but women don't have the option not to go to the dock were to is my point. >> force them on the exchanges. >> no, you don't. >> women want to go to the doctor. >> that's not true. >> that's not true. >> so-called substandards. >> they are substandards. >> that's the whole point of the law but you are canceling them you are admitting. >> it no, they are substandard. >> yes you can go on to the exchanges and get better coverage. >> you are talking out both sides of your mouth. >> no, i'm not. no, i'm not. >> the insurance companies aren't dropping people. >> no, that's not what i said. >> find them as substandard and cancel them. >> they aren't substandard. the insurance companies are canceling them. not insurance air. >> no no, h.h.s. >> i can't understand why there are some problems with this whole rollout. it doesn't make any sense to me. rich and zerlina. >> has to do with the it and government contracting. >> after three years. >> got to leave it there.
4:21 am
>> not true it didn't work in the beginning. >> the. >> i have been on the exchanges on myself. it works fine. >> rich and zerlina thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> coming up on the show he is the dad and son's school had no idea that his son had a drug addiction. wisest kid, am i forgetting something? no holiday's complete without campbell's green bean casserole. wish you were here. ♪ [ doorbell ] [ gasps ] ♪ [ gong ] [ wisest kid ] m'm! m'm! good!

4:26 am
hallucinogenic mushrooms. what i didn't know he was actually already addicted to drugs. >> well, i'm reading here that 80% of kids they experiment with substances before they graduate before, a lot of parents at home are thinking what do i do? clearly head of the school, ed cared trying to be a good father. doubt notice it first how do they notice? right i didn't notice at first. i asked myself some times how could i be a educator and see so many kids struggle and not notice. adolescents who use drugs are quite adept at hiding it. they have a lot to hide. parents should look changes in behavior, changes in friendships. declining grades in school. lack of interest and what had interested their children before. there are signs. >> this is just a nightmare of every parent, that you lose control of a child who
4:27 am

5:05 am
that 39 democrats broke with the white house yesterday to vote for the upton bill which would allow people to keep their insurance that was cancelled. >> this was political cya. that is what this is about. these democrats are in real trouble. they know they can't go back home and defend. this far more people with cancelled insurance than they do with people who suddenly have this wonderful insurance policy that's costing them $2,500 less. that turned out to be a complete myth. people are seeing their policies double. quadruple. it's hostile. no democrat wants to go home and say i'm sure proud i voted for that they are trying to say i fix it. >> government should not be doing a program like this. cannot run a program like this. charles krauthammer last night on the kelly file had this to say. i want to get to you respond. >> okay. >> unless it is somehow rescued and they make it work, this will be a story of an epic collapse of the central element of a new
5:06 am
kind of liberalism and this ideology will go down with the policy. that's why liberals are so afraid of this thing collapsing and they are in horror they train wreck that they are now witnessing. >> do you agree? >> i think liberals don't yet understand that the reason it's collapsing is because it is destined to collapse. already in the first week we finally got some numbers. we found three times more people are on medicaid than purchase the insurance and of those who purchase a lot of them are getting a subsidy. think what that means. that means that you have a whole lot of people getting free product, very few people paying for the product and the only way to pay for all the free product is to charge the paying people a whole lot more. this is something that ought to be a big shock to anybody. so i agree with charles that i -- liberals are in a panic but i don't know that liberals actually get it it i don't think they are that smart. i don't think liberals are smart enough to understand that you cannot continue to give things away without
5:07 am
some day having to pay for it. somebody has to do that. >> not just the rollout of the web site but the program seems to be really a debacle. no denying that. the "new york times" recently comparing the obamacare rollout to hurricane katrina for president bush. can you compare the two. >> one is a man made disaster and that's obama's rollout and the other was a natural disaster. i will be the first to concede there were some real problems in the way that the administration, the bush administration handled the first few days of katrina. our state took 75,000 people n three days. it was a stunning 3% increase in our state's population. that's a pretty big jump. and so we dealt with a lot of challenges. but, they started did i power back to the states and letting people make decisions. worked out. it's typical of the "new york times" they have got to look for something. let's blame bush. why not. go ahead and say it's his
5:08 am
fault. here is the thing the president is doing. he is he scrambling. i have never seen a president scramble so much. this ridiculous notion that he tells the nash companies go ahead and let them keep their policy shows how inept he is and how little he understands how insurance regulations work. it takes months to change an insurance regulation. you have administrative hearings. you have all this process. and for him to say just go ahead and offer those policies, it would be like the president of the united states saying to mcdonald's, we order you to put the mcrib on the menu. >> trying to make them the bad guy and not him? >> what i don't understand is it's not the president's job constitutionally. is he a constitutional law major supposedly. he signs the law. legislative branch decides of it. how can he he say parts of the law are are not working i will change them. >> not only unconstitutional, tucker. think about this. what has been the reason the democrats have held up any possible changes to obamacare some that i bet they wish they had gone ahead and accepted it.
5:09 am
they use this phrase it's the law of the land. he goes in there and unilaterally decides which pieces of the law that he will either accept, change, enforce, or completely ignore. >> i didn't hear him say this at the podium but this undermines his entire argument that these are scam policies or bad policies. that they were all -- scam policies that people once they got sick with then be dropped from their insurance plans. these are better plans. and now i didn't hear him say that on the podium. >> of course he can't. this is like saying we have taken some really bad medicine off the shelf because it's going to hurt you. three days later come back and say you know we want you to go ahead and have access. what if it makes you sick? we don't care. it's our political rear that matters. not yours. >> go ahead and eat it. >> do we like when a president takes responsibility and says he is sorry? is this going to help him? does this wipe the slap clean for him? >> i think what he is sorry for is he a sorry that his plan is not working.

i'm not sure that he sorry people lose healthcare or rates triple to the point it's unaffordable. irony of all of this is done in the name of affordable care act. most people that had insurance find it unaffordable. let's not forget we had 85% of the marketplace covered. is a% weren't. disrupting 100% for the 125. we should have carved out the 15. we could have done a backbone of medicaid. creating a pool for people who are high risk. it could have worked. you pay deductibles, co-pay, you control utilization. this could have worked and would have been simple. >> exactly. thank you for saying that no one remembers that. this was done in the back room deal. what do you have on the show today. >> rick santorum. he will be talking about obamacare and strategy of republicans going forward. a fascinating young man who has mba from fordham, can't find a job. sets up a table in front of the biggest brokerage houses

gaps between terror attack on the u.s. consulate there congressman mike rogers said this last night on the kelly file. >> by the testimony we have received over the last few days, compared by the testimony that was taken earlier and it sync, up, it is clear there was intervals in the fighting. three hour block in the lull of the fighting. >> that may conflict with our next guest's i object ter presentation. a member of the house intelligence committee republican of california. thanks for joining us. >> thanks, tucker. >> tell us about whether there was a lull. >> i don't understand the significance to. me there was never a lull. for one, we have video so we have the drone feed qui have the video. provide the video whether or not there were bad guys out there. >> you are the house
5:16 am
intelligence committee. what grounds are they denying you the video. >> well, there shouldn't be a time line issue. we don't need witnesses to tell us about the time line whether or not there were attackers. we need to know if they saw the attackers, that sort of thing. secondly, if there was this lull in the fighting. the reason they want -- the administration wants this narrative of the lull because they want an excuse as to why they didn't send in help. >> yes. >> that's why they want the whole issue with the lull. so there f. there was a lull, then what were these guys doing on the roof top at 5:00 in the morning. they didn't normally stand on the roof tops. >> exactly. >> furthermore, what on earth happened to the ambassador? we had a missing ambassador. there is no lull when the guy that all those people are supposed to be protecting the ambassador and he is missing? there is a lull? there is a reason that everybody just parks their cars and grounds all the airplanes and just doesn't do anything? nonsense. not reasonable. >> one of the reason we don't have answers to very basic questions and legitimate questions i think like those is that a lot of the people who were on the ground cia officers and contractors have signed ndas
5:17 am
promising not to talk. why would the administration force them to do that. >> there is lots of lies and coverup in this. i don't understand why. i sent a letter with nine questions that the administration needs to answer. if they would just answer the nine questions, this would all go away. but, for some reason, they don't answer the questions. so this week we had a couple two different interviews. one on wednesday with people who are currently in the agency. and then thursday on people that are now retired, and these are all good people. if it wasn't for them, every american in benghazi would have been murdered that night. and, for some reason, the guys that are now retired there is orchestrated effort to discredit them. >> that's just disgusting. the overwhelming majority polling shows americans want answers to these questions and deserve them since they are paying for this since it's their country. here is a very basic question. why were there some two dozen cia officers in benghazi libya in the first place? >> it's a good question. some of that should be
5:18 am
classified. >> how about give me a sense of it it. >> well, obviously, normally they would be there. that was a former war zone, so i'm sure there is a lot of bad guys on the ground there we know there is terrorists on the ground. it doesn't -- that's not really the question that we need answered. the question that we need answered is why did they not, if there were calls for help, why did no help ever come? >> right. >> we have a counter terrorism team at the state department that could have been deployed it wasn't deployed it normally is deployed in situations like this. so, now, then it took, because terrorism team was not deployed, then the fbi didn't get on the ground until three weeks after the attack. so now you have got all these bad guys running around loose. and there is -- it doesn't appear like there is any attempt to actually go get them. >> that's just unbelievable. i would love to know. if when jp morgan does something, the administration doesn't like. they're on the scene. but when four of our guys are murdered, three weeks it's outrageous. congressman, thanks a lot. thanks for coming on and

5:25 am
approaching her. there was a long walk of me approaching her. i went up to ask her what is your response to this verdict? she didn't like me being there. she stuck her finger in my face and she said i have something to say. stay away from me. i put my microphone down, she crossed the street. went to her car. that was the end of it well, later on she ended up telling her publicist and husband that i nearly knocked her teeth out with my microphone. so that is what freaked him out. do we have that video? because i want to show this it does definitely tell a different story and i would love the viewers because they can be the ultimate judge on this if we have that video. >> there it is. >> do you have any comments about the woman being found guilty today? anything to say? >> i have something to say. get away from me. >> and the side story to all of this. she is not somebody brand new to microphones being put up to her and being asked questions because she is an entertainment reporter for another entertainment show on a different network and she does feature reports. this is not brand new for her.
5:26 am
she had told her husband that i nearly knocked her teeth out by doing that so he snapped. >> is he okay? it seems like he has been living out on a subway grate panhandling. he doesn't seem like the alec baldwin from "saturday night live" he seems in trouble. >> second time in my life covering him. first time from a distance. he has no idea who i am. i have never been around either one of these two people before. i don't know them personally. but yesterday when there was the huge melee and the only reason that we were there yesterday is because there were reports that he had assaulted a reporter from the "new york post." as a result, my bosses said okay, look, we did not want to go down there again today. the story is over. we don't want to seem like we are piling on here, but, now there is this other report of him allegedly assaulting another reporter. let's go down there. that's the only reason we were there. >> and you weren't the first. >> we were not the first. >> remind the viewers robert moses and this confrontation that occurred with him
5:27 am
earlier. take a look. >> did you hear what i said? yes or no. if you are here when my wife and kid come out here you know you have a big problem, okay? >> okay. >> that was early yesterday morning. after that incident happened. our bosses got together and had a conversation look we covered the trial. we covered the verdict. this story is over. we did the follow-up yesterday morning. robert moses did it the story is done for us. let's not pile on. then came the report of him allegedly assaulting another reporter. i saw the video and he did assault that reporter. that's why i was there. >> yelling at the police to press charges. >> against me, no, no, no. nothing happened there he has no basis for any charges being filed against me whatsoever. he has not charged any filed. the nypd came up to me after he finally left with his wife because they were packing to go away for the weekend they came up to me to ask me if i was okay. if i had been hurt in any way. so, it's unfortunate that it happened, but i do want to say, this i respect the man for believing his wife, because you should believe your spouse. so you have to respect him
5:28 am
for that. that's what she told him. in this case though, she got it wrong and as a result he got it wrong. in this case. they are both wrong. >> yeah. that's obvious from the tape. be careful out there. >> i know, are you okay? are you good? >> i think i will be all right. thank you, guys. >> linda, thank you so much. >> well, coming up on "fox & friends" weekend, he fought to protect our freedom but his employer says he can't end his emails with god bless america and he has been put on leave. he is bringing his fight to "fox & friends" today. >> and she is the self-defense trainer that taught actress kerry russell how to defend herself as russian spy in latest tv role this morning showing off moves we can use to protect ourselves every day. >> lindsey moore, come on.

5:41 am
attacker from here. >> hello. >> is he going to stand here and show you what is he going to do. >> okay. >> for example, when it comes to self-defense for a woman you want it to be very simple. modify just very basic defenses against the most common attacks so, from here if someone tries to grab my hairs you know as a woman it's very control. if you can control the head of the victim you can control the body. instead of trying to rip it off. i want to keep it here and prevent him from pulling me towards him from. me i control him and immediately deliver too weaken. you can do whatever you else you need do do to disrupt his thought process. so if the attacker comes here and grabs your hair instead of him pulling you and continuing pull you from here you want to. >>, o, if he does pull knew him it's great because now you can glue yourself to him and blade across his neck. here you have control of the whole body now when you get close you can deliver a
5:42 am
combative to the groin, exactly. with a kick. >> you are basically using all angles to create some lang. even closer to the body it shows you as a woman you can control your attacker. if he comes at me from behind what do i need to do. >> i will show you quickly if my attacker grabs me immediately and wants to grab my hair i want to prevent me from pulling me into him. from here i same concept i come in and i close i do a knee from here i attack and then can i disengage from him safe limit. obviously a lot scary which which he are unfortunate, that's the situation. one of the worse cases that you would face. >> thank you for the demo. >> thank you so much for having me. thank you. 42 minutes after the hour now. and since president obama took office. hundreds of our top military leaders have left their post. why? and is this compromising our national security? and not getting enough rest

5:47 am
an hour's sleep. clayton and tucker over to you. >> thanks, anna. over to 200 military leaders out of their post since president obama took office. why are we seeing this purge of some of our greatest leaders and what effected will this have on our national security? joining to us discuss this retired air force colonel and author of "the mercenary" dan hampton. it does seem like there is an exodus of leadership from the armed services. what accounts for that? >> well, you know, tucker, who can blame them? the military is basically an extension of the civilian policy makers and there isn't a policy coming out of washington. i mean, name a strategy, a coherent functional rationale strategy coming out of washington. i can't. neither can they. a lot of these guys disagree. professionally, with the white house. and as a result. you know, they are getting fired. the president being an amateur has chosen to surround himself with other
5:48 am
amateurs. and he is not the kind of guy to take criticism. his egos writing checks that he can't deliver on. so his only recourse is to get rid of these guys and look what happened to stanley mckristol, right? >> we had a laundry list of folks up on the screen here we were showing. >> right. >> these guys being fired, forced out. how much of a role does the play in purging these guys and gals? >> well, you know, you are not going to find -- you are probably not going to find any memos or anything written down on it all it takes from him is a word or two in the right area. and these guys are gone. and the biggest thing -- the biggest gap that that leaves in the military then is people who now step in to fill these shoes, who may be doing so, you know, for political reasons, not necessarily because they are the best qualified. so now you don't have anybody left who is going to stand up to this clown act in the white house. look at the wave of sexual harassment prosecutions and convictions in the military. you know, this waive of political correctness.
5:49 am
you know, there has been a couple of high profile cases lately that's cost us the services of two in the air force's case two very qualified and talented general officers, including an astronaut. because they overturned these sexual harassment convictions and that ran afoul of the political hierarchy in the white house and in congress. >> it's unbelievable. i read the other day the administration announced the diversity is essential in our military. why should i care what color my army is? what does it have to do with anything? don't i want a competent and ferocious army? like what is that? >> absolutely. it has nothing to do with it. you know, i spent over 20 years in the military. i could care less how the person next to me is dressed, what color they are, how they pray. i don't even care who they sleep with. what i care about is how they fight and are they going to get me killed or are they going to be able to do their job? >> is this affecting our national defense, colonel before we let you go. >> absolutely. look at claire mccaskill
5:50 am
running around getting rid of these generals who gets in her way. doesn't pay property taxes and serves as a senator and gets rid of officers. air force cases we are going to be a doesn't pay property tax and can get rid of general officers. we'll be 1,000 pilot fighters short. they don't have to put up with this, enough, i'm gone. >> thanks a lot for joining us. thanks for that crisp and smart and pretty depressing explanation. >> always a pleasure to be back. thanks. >> coming up on the show, a family disappears more than three years ago. police thought this was them crossing into mexico now their bodies turned up. who killed them? breaking details. >> he fought to protect our freedom 30 years. he can't send e-mails that say "god bless america." he was put on leave for that. my asthma's under control.
5:51 am
i don't miss out... you sat out most of our game yesterday! asthma doesn't affect my job... you were out sick last week. my asthma doesn't bother my family... you coughed all through our date night! i hardly use my rescue inhaler at all. what did you say? how about - every day? coping with asthma isn't controlling it. test your level of control at asthma.com, then talk to your doctor. there may be more you could do for your asthma.

5:55 am
for who i am. >> how long have you been doing this? >> fourth of july, 2012. >> what prompted to you do that? >> i'm a patriot. i believe in america. i believe america needs god's good will and god's blessings. >> have you ever heard a complaint from anyone you e-mailed? >> never heard a complaint until just recently. >> why was the hospital upset? >> i think the hospital got upset not because of the e-mail but when they told me i would take it offer or i would or already had after they told me to and at that time i told them i would seek legal counsel. >> brad, you got involved in this. what was your thought when boots called you? >> it was pretty surprised and disappointing to hear a hospital
5:56 am
who had taken this action initially because he put "god bless america." this man served 20 years serving our country and the fact they would think god bless america is offensive to some other employee. and not discriminate against other employees who have personal expressions is hypocritical and hostile to people with patriotic opinion. >> boots, where is the fight right now? >> the fight is with my attorneys. i am back to work. my attorneys haven't given me permanent yilgs to put it back on my e-mails. we've been asking for them to let me put it back on my e-mails or have everybody in the hospital remove their comments from their e-mails. >> right. >> boots and brad, we appreciate
5:57 am

6:18 am
they like at a price they can't afford. there are stories taking place. i have one constituent who is in line for a kidney transplant. she has insurance and it covers the transplant when she'll need it. she's got a cancellation notice. she is going to the exchange and there is only one option for her in rural wisconsin for health care coverage that will work for her in the exchange. it doesn't cover the transplant. she is losing her doctor, losing her coverage, and she is absolutely terrified. this is life and death for a lot of people. if we don't get this fixed, it's catastrophic. i have other kids, i have max a college student whose insurance is going up by $150. he can't afford it. he's going without. warren in wisconsin has a doctor in his community that is covered in his current health care plan and insurance. he is losing it and he has to travel 70 miles away to his new
6:19 am
doctor. we are hearing these stories in congress nonstop. >> the irony is obama care was designed punitively for people like the ones you just mentioned, yet it's hurting them. why didn't the administration foresee this coming? >> i think we both know that the administration did see it coming. that's why the misrepresentation if you have your health care and you like it, you can keep it, period, is such a lie. in wisconsin, tucker, almost 95% of our citizens are covered with insurance. we could have worked to find that other 5%, 6% get them coverage instead of wiping the slate clean and taking a lot of people who have insurance, taking them off. the president said he was all about redistributing wealth. he's taking health insurance from middle class, hard-working families and giving it to people who don't have insurance. this is real why i painful stuff. oftentimes with this economy,
6:20 am
when these prices go up for this new obama care insurance, our families can't afford it. >> as you know, the profile of the families losing their insurance, self-insured tend to be small business people, tends to be republican. do you think that's an accident? >> i think it's not an accident he is trying to get everyone into a more government-run health care system. i don't know if it was republican or democrat, but i do know it's hurting my constituents. we have to have a fix. you talked about the president's administrative fix that came earlier in the week. that is no fix at all. that's going to be another misrepresentation from the administration. >> thanks for joining us. >> up next, a blind man kicked off a plane because his guide dog was unruly in the judgment of one flight attendant. wait till you hear the incredible way other passengers came to his aid. the irs making a big mistake

6:26 am
this individual. >> i want to let us airways have a say in this is. "we're particularly sensitive to those customers who travel with service animals and we partner with assistance dogs international. in this case mr. rizzi became disruptive and refused to comply when a flight attendant asked him to secure a service dog at his feet." they say it is still under investigation. you say this isn't really what happened at all. the dog was doing what? >> mr. rizzi was sitting in the last row on the airplane. it was a little turbo prop. there was no seat in front of him. they asked him to stow the dog, put the dog away. he said, all right, what do i need to do. they said the dog has to be under the seat. the passenger sitting directly on the left of him offered, you can put the dog under my seat.
6:27 am
so they put the dog which was a labrador, not a little dog, under the seat. the person in the seat next to him sat indian style so the dog would have plenty of room. we sat on the tarmac for a good hour, 1 1/2 hours. >> you just start getting restless. did the dog become unruly then? >> all the dog did was stick his head out so he could touch his owner's leg. from what i understand these dogs are trained to be in constant contact with their handlers. the dog was doing that. the flightk a couple of times and said to him, the dog has to be stowed under the seat. mr. rizzi was like, okay, i'm doing what i can. i don't know exactly what you want me to do, but i'll do what i can and all that. finally we get to the point where we're taxiing for

6:29 am
off the plane. >> he was kgetting kicked off te plane. >> the individual says yes, we have to remove from you this flight because you're not being cooperative and not following instrucks. soon as we heard that on the plane, everybody was like. this is not true. let him sit back down. >> thank you so much for being a whistle-blower in this situation. it doesn't seem like the other passengers were disrupted by his actions. >> not at all. >> thank you so much. >> 29 minutes after the hour now. coming up on "fox and friends," the first time congress talking to the survivors of the benghazi terror attack and new details of what happens. a congressman in that hearing. he fought to protect our freedom, but his employer says he can't end his e-mails with "god bless america." he was put on leave for it. customer erin swenson ordered shoes from us online

6:34 am
that's closer. >> could be accurate. >> or totally move the goal post and change the rules. >> welcome back to "fox and friends." 33 minutes past the hour. we are getting inside information from katherine about the five cia personnel asked to sign second nondisclosure agreements after the benghazi attack. some of this from the closed-door testimony before the house intelligence committee this week. we don't know exactly what unfolded during this testimony. we do know they were asked to sign a second nondisclosure agreement. why? why was the first nondisclosure agreement not enough? >> that is a great question. we learned from mike rogers that ambassador stevens who was killed at the scene, of course, warned the white house about his security concerns, apparently those concerns were unheaded or not taken seriously enough. >> we spoke to devon nunez who
6:35 am
said there was no lull. that was the argument, there was no lull in the action. he says he doesn't understand that at all. there was no lull. listen. >> to me there was never a lull. for one, we have video so we have the drone feed, we had the surveillance video. provide the committee the video and we can get to the bottom of whether or not there were bad guys out there. the reason they want, the administration wants this narrative of a lull they want an excuse why they didn't send in help. that's why they want the whole issue with the lull. if there was a lull what were these guys doing on the roof top at 5:00 in the morning? >> the crux of this whole thing is that they are trying to find out who either at the cia or the administration thought it was necessary for these cia guys to actually not come forward and to talk about this. they are trying to figure out who gave this order? >> what were they doing there in
6:36 am
the first place? i asked congressman nunez this question. that is the mice try at the course of all this. there were over two dozen cia personnel on the scene in benghazi. that may be what the white house is trying to protect with this secrecy. >> we are happy law makers are able to meet these survivors the first time. they hadn't been able to do so in the past and try to work to get some answers. why were the nondisclosure agreements, why did they have to be signed? the other thing we heard from nunez saying that there was no lull. mike rogers said there was on megan kelly's show last night. they are going to continue to scour over these transcripts and hopefully get more answers. it's strange they say two different things about was there a lull in fighting or was there not. >> video camera was rolling during the length of this attack which went over some number of hours. the intelligence community which
6:37 am
is supposed to provide oversight will not release these tapes. on what grounds will they not release these tapes? i asked congressman nunez, he didn't know. we're just not giving them to you. can do you that? they have done it. >> more answers we still need on this story. first our headlines this morning. >> we'll get right to those. today is the last day of the search for the man who fell or jumped from a small private airplane as it flew off the coast of miami. the search began after the pilot made a may day call saying a man opened the door of the plane and fell out. police identified the missing man as 42-year-old gerardo nale from key biscayne. there is no evidence of foul play. if you're overweight or a smoker, you could pay more for health insurance next year. 40% of major u.s. companies are going to put health goals on like putting smoking or losing weight. if you don't meet them, you'll pay more. 5,000 companies already have

6:46 am
turn down your thermostat one degree, it's going to save you almost 3% on your bills. let me do the math. if if you take your thermostat down ten degrees and take it down over 16 hours during the day while at work or sleeping, you're saving almost 30% on your bill. if you have a $50 bill, you're saving $15 a month on that bill. >> what is great is, i'm a tech guy here. the nest thermostat our bill went down $300 because it's doing it itself. it's smart. it knows when you're home and knows when to shut it down. >> exactly. >> your next tip. only heat the rooms you use. when you're blasting that heat it's going into the closets, that bathroom you're not in. >> exactly. if you have more space, that bill is going to go up. if your family is like my family, we stay in the living room and kitchen most of the time in the house. my suggestion is heat the kitchen and living room or rooms you spend the most times in and
